Udalguri, July 29 -- The All BTC Minorities Students' Union (ABMSU) on Tuesday staged protests across the five districts of the Bodoland Territorial Region (BTR), demanding the arrest of the remaining accused in the 2017 murder of its former president, Lafiqul Islam Ahmed.

Demonstrations were held at Gossaigaon and Bhotgaon in Kokrajhar district, Dwarkuchi in Tamulpur district, Mushalpur in Baksa district, Rowta in Udalguri district and Kajalgaon in Chirang district.

Protesters carried placards and raised slogans, alleging that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had failed to execute standing arrest warrants against three accused who remain absconding. The organisation also questioned the release of another accused on bail.
